Essex is not only a coastal county (the North Sea is to its east) but a home county because it touches Greater London on its eastern borders. Its settlements vary from Colchester, which is very historical and used to be the capital of England as Camulodunum, to Southend, a seaside resort, to Basildon, which is a comparatively modern urban development. The western side of Essex hosts many London workers and there are fast rail links to, for example, Shenfield from London Liverpool Street which aid many city workers.Essex's county town is Chelmsford (and is the county's only city), where Essex County Cricket Club are based. Essex hosts Stansted Airport and attractions such as the Lakeside Shopping Centre, near Thurrock and Epping Forest, a popular forest for camping and other activities. A large proportion of Essex's boundaries are water (the River Thames and the North Sea), the remainder includes Greater London, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Suffolk. Kent is across the River Thames to the south.

The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.

Should you buy a leasehold property with a short lease?
Leasehold properties with short leases – i.e. anything less than 80 years – can sometimes be found on the market and are normally sold for much less than comparable properties with leases of more than 80 years.
You may be tempted to buy such a property but you should be aware of the following:
- you may find it very difficult to get a lender to provide you with a mortgage to buy the property or to remortgage it;
- if you don't manage to get the lease extended yourself, you may find the property very difficult to sell; and
- if the lease falls below 20 years and you've lived in your property for less than a year, you cannot take the 'formal route' to a lease extension; which means that you cannot ultimately guarantee that you'll get a lease extension.
